I am truly sorry for your loss. May memories of happier times help you to cope during these most difficult days. Have faith in the promise God made at Psalms 37:29. It reads “The righteous themselves will possess the earth, And they will reside forever upon it.” His promises brings us comfort and offers us hope. They will without fail come true. I offer my sincere condolences to you all.
